How does water underfloor heating work? Hydraulic underfloor heating takes advantage of the flexibility of PEX pipes. Uncut segments snake across the room, with the beginning and end attached to the collector. Since the floor will be sealed, there should be no joints in the tube. Each loop of the tube is installed at a […]
